I saw the whole document on TV many years ago and it's also on youtube, and it's just to say that 5 secondes before he starts Labyrinth he had just given a most fantastic interpretation of the Tchaikovski concerto! In this case it's quite easy to forgive the small imperfections.
I often send my friends good music from TH-cam - but this one I don't 😢... One has to be a good listener to see and hear the subtle greatness of this lovable performance and music... It's like sending a piece of the beautiful soul and kind heart to be scrutinized by someone who is unable to see.
If anyone has any criticism for Master Oistrakh regarding this caprice which he performed right after playing the entire Tchaikovsky violin concerto then I have this to say to you: YOU play the entire Tchaikovsky concerto then see how you feel. That thing is epic and to play this so cleanly and beautifully afterward with none of the editing or doctoring that gets done nowadays shows the greatness of Oistrakh.
I think you mean: "It's like the Paganini Caprice no. 1, except more sublime and more difficult." Personally, I think Oistrakh's rendition is superb. Especially love how he closes it out with the Ds fading into oblivion.
TheBaroker The first caprice by Paganini was undoubtedly based on Locatelli’s 7th caprice (the opening chords are identical to those of Paganini’s first caprice; go listen to it, it’s pretty cool), but this caprice is constant, sustained arpeggiated ricochet, a technique pioneered by both composers, specifically in this and Paganini’s 1st caprice. I think it’s safe to say that this caprice is a lot like the Paganini’s first caprice, in fact, it was possibly the inspiration, like an opening homage to Locatelli.
in terms of bowing, this is same difficulty as paganini 1 (actually it is the same bowing, period). In terms of left hand technique, paganini 1 is harder, and it's not even close.
If we want to be pedantic, this is an arrangement of the caprice that was also inserted into his 12th concerto. Originally there wouldn't be an orchestra part behind him here.
I played under him once. It's not only long but it's flexible and he makes a whipping noise with it on strong beats. He frequently didn't use a podium so the large baton was more visible.
Hey; this makes me feel pretty good, it reminds of a Scottish reel I can play quite well. Maybe I should start working on the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto after all. On second thoughts I think I'll leave it till my next incarnation.
My dear Oistrakh. Some times those darn notes are dificult to maintain in tune, don't you think? But what I dislike the most is those damned flowers! Still he's got that good sound
@SamLee0519: Could you perhaps help me - on forenoon 14 August I got a quick notice that I had been sent an answer to my comment " Perpetuum Mobile...", As the notice disappeared so quickly, I hadn't time to react. Now that answer can't be found anywhere. Do you think it could be retraced???
hey oistrakhmilstein, for years iv been wanting to hear the perfromance of oistrakh of rondo cappriccioso, ill be really greatfull if you can tell me where i could find it.
If you mean Saint-Saens, you can find the introduction & rondo capriccioso at * David Oistrakh Introduction & Rondo Capriccioso, op. 28 (TH-cam: majomxxl)
@OzzyKingofKings No, Caprice 1 by Paganini is more, more difficult. In this piece there are no fast passages in parallel thirds neither so complicated fingering.
OldsoftCZ this is one of those songs that if you have good finger structure you are good to go. not much movement except in the bow arm. some contortion, but overall, not super difficult.
This is recorded in Moscow, celebrating David Oistrakh's 60th birthday - an extra to the Tchaikovsky violin concerto. It was recorded 27 September 1968 (his birthday 28 Sept.)
Amazing playing. Just gorgeous. P.S. I do not like the cheesy, full-romantic orchestration with brass, timpani, etc. Not what Locatelli wrote, and very tacky. But his playing rises above it.
The pathetic and worthless disputes in this video's comments cause me a headache and nausea. Oistrakh is one of the most distinguished violinists of the 20th century. Yes there were some notes out of tune in this performance. But if you're comparing two violinists based on a performance of a mere caprice, you must have quite poor musical judgment.
The flowers were brought in after the Tchaikovsky violin concerto, celebrating his 60th birthday - but didn't he do it SUPERBLY, despite being stuck behind the flowers, and despite having played the whole concerto before that?
people play this kind of pieces always very fast,in order to paralyze the public,but the public should know,not every piece is hard when it is played fast.this piece is one of them,which is easier to play fast.here is slow,would be harder if it was played even more slower.Milstein said,the caprice 1st,is then unplayable,if it is played very slow.
This piece is for violin solo. The orchestra has nothing to do in this piece. The accompaniment by Gennady Rozhdestvensky is good at some moments, but unnecessary and simple. You can't listen to the moving voices written by Locatelli with all the orchestra playing. It's a pity that Oistrakh didn't record it properly.
May be he lost two or three notes, but common, can you play that like him, and after the tchaikovsky concerto and two heart attaks, the unique thing that I am going to tell you , more respect for a genius, son of a ......., you know what I mean, And also I know what are you thinking, Heifetz is better, NO!!!!!!!!!!, hE IS WORSE BECAUSE HE IS LIKE A ROBOT
With all respect; Yasha Heifetz reaching up to, or going past David Oistrakh's standard - sheer impossibility !!!!! I've listened to all I can find on TH-cam, and only twice have I noticed a momentary slip of the bow (less than an eye-blink): in Tchaikovsky violin concerto, Rondo abt 7.23 - and likevise in Bach's double violin concerto (part 1, abt 1.47) with his son Igor: * David Oistrakh & Igor Oistrakh - Bach'Concerto for Two Violins in D minor (complete) (TH-cam: 84kaptur) I believe it might have been his last recording before hi s death. He looks unexceptionally grave in this performance (I compare it with the one he played with Yehudi Menuhin, where he a couple of times smiles with happy satisfaction in part 2.).
his f sharp is at the begining too low.intonation is not always right here.but it is played slow,this piece is in a slow tempo 1000 TIMES harder than in a fast tempo,because of the richochet.richochet does not really work in a slow tempo.and he tries even to make diffirence between richochet AND detachet
Calm down! He's a minority,you don't need to get too worked up over someone like that. And don't bring Heifetz into it. :( Some people prefer technicality,maybe he's one of them.

First time I've ever heard Oistrakh talk
How are you 15 years later?
Lol
Too!
@@James.877 I thought I replied to this. I’m okay
@@OrlandoAponte nice
when i first hears this piece ,i thought it is impossible but this man has played it with mad skills . TOTALLY EXTRAORDINARY
I saw the whole document on TV many years ago and it's also on youtube, and it's just to say that 5 secondes before he starts Labyrinth he had just given a most fantastic interpretation of the Tchaikovski concerto! In this case it's quite easy to forgive the small imperfections.
He could not be your favorite violinist, but he was the best of the best.
Yes - the best - Greatest of all The Greats of all times, unbeatable King of Violinists !!!
Bravo David Oistrakh - Bravo Gennady Rozhdestvensky - Bravo Orchestra PERFECTION!!!!!

Спасибо за возможность послушать грандиозного музыканта и великолепный оркестр.Композитору браво.
Could you maybe tell us what David Oistrakh says in the beginning?
@@ullakorpi-anttila88We will play Locatelli's caprice "Labyrinth" in the instrumentation of Gennady Nikolaevich Rozhdestvensky.
So relaxed and controlled. Excellenttttttttttt!
I think you mean: "It's like the Paganini Caprice no. 1, except more sublime and more difficult."

It has nothing in common with paganini 1st caprice.

Brooooo Paganini caprice 1 is wayyyyy harder than this
It's very impressive how he can go in and out of the bouncing.
This brings a smile on my face - THANK YOU !!!!!!!
Magnificent music making. A wonderful momento of great musicians.
Bravo Oistrakh! You are perfect! You play this very dificult piece, the last bars, with the all control of the world! Thank you Oistrakh!
What remarkable artist!
What a marvelous interpretation!
very precious video. thank you
It's actually a cadenza to the Locatelli's violin concerto
If we want to be pedantic, this is an arrangement of the caprice that was also inserted into his 12th concerto. Originally there wouldn't be an orchestra part behind him here.
Actually in the original edition published in the Netherlands has the word "capriccio", caprice in English
Perpeetum mobile - but not - unluckily it has an end 😢 ❤❤❤
Magistral ejecución del Prestigioso Violinísta ; "El Legendario DAVID OISTRAKH .
Im a half assed
Guitar player.this giy is u favorite eber
Im a half assed guitar player bit i got ears.this guy os my favorite ever
Refreshing music. Thx
Magnificent !!!!
Siempre impecable y con personalidad
I can't imagine Oistrakh played this funpiece ! LOL
marvelous!
That is what I call a baton
I played under him once. It's not only long but it's flexible and he makes a whipping noise with it on strong beats. He frequently didn't use a podium so the large baton was more visible.
WOW!
Es la mejor versión que he escuchado felicidades dónde quiera que estés sds.
king of the violon
Yes, he plays the viola with equal suverenity - also THE King of Violinists...
wow! thanks.
Wow!
I tried doing 4:11 to no avail. Master Oistrach, I am your humble servant.
La Magistral técnica en su instrumento lo hace ser por siempre un Violinista Excepcional .
David Oistrakh has been dead for more than 35 years now (1974) and is still unsurpassed as violinist!
Now 50 years...
Hey; this makes me feel pretty good, it reminds of a Scottish reel I can play quite well. Maybe I should start working on the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto after all. On second thoughts I think I'll leave it till my next incarnation.
Pfft haha 😂😂😂😂😂
I think it makes it seem more epic
@stomentendo Yes, you are true.
My dear Oistrakh. Some times those darn notes are dificult to maintain in tune, don't you think? But what I dislike the most is those damned flowers! Still he's got that good sound

@prodipe23 Thank you. Some imbeciles did say negative things though, which is why I made that comment.
They worked him pretty hard
Is this from Soviet Television,by any chance ?

stuck in a labyrinth of flowers there dave?

Paganini 1 doesn’t even compare to this 😂
oistrakh didnt play this too well, his still my fav though
who is blaming oistrakh, i said "This piece is sooo repetitive, i dont like the piece, not oistrakh
Me 2. But the intonation isn't that good.
May be he lost two or three notes, but common, can you play that like him, and after the tchaikovsky concerto and two heart attaks, the unique thing that I am going to tell you , more respect for a genius, son of a ......., you know what I mean, And also I know what are you thinking, Heifetz is better, NO!!!!!!!!!!, hE IS WORSE BECAUSE HE IS LIKE A ROBOT

Why is he playing so slow...
Hang on a second it’s not slow mate
Tempo perfect - hypnotizing - ❤❤❤
not a fan of accompaniment to a piece written a capella. oh well.
Out of tune right from the beginning.
Cris Xander he's right, his fingers are a half step down
Pitborn if its out of tune its the recording.
David Oistrakh is never, and has never been out of tune - it's with reason he has been called King of Violinists, and still is unbeaten
no impression
its like paganinni caprice no 1, except not that exciting.... I don't think that I will bother learning it.
Calm down!
He's a minority,you don't need to get too worked up over someone like that.
And don't bring Heifetz into it. :( Some people prefer technicality,maybe he's one of them.
I'm not calming down - really, is there someone who prefers Heifetz????? Absurdity!!!!!!
this is sooo repetitive
That is what I call a baton
